Most Amazing App – Joy of Cooking Review

Don't think of this app as just a cookbook--it is so much more! The navigation is quick, easy, and flawless. The app has many features you might expect: create menus (even on your own calendar), build grocery lists, conversions, substitutions, ability to add notes to recipes, bookmarks (handy for jumping between multiple recipes while cooking), and favorites. However, there are some features that set this app among the best apps: •Timers-you can instantly set timers when you come to them in the recipe & you can have multiple timers activated. •Block sleep mode so the device stays on while you are cooking. •Read mode will actually read each step of the recipe to you. •Command recognition allows you to speak and navigate through the steps of the recipe. This saves you from having to touch the screen if you hands get messy while preparing the recipe. •Each step is highlighted so you can keep track of where you are. You can highlight it with a simple tap or a voice command. •If you are familiar with the book form, you will recall the numerous references to other parts of the book. This are all linked, making it effortless to jump to the reference, read it, and get back to your recipe. There are plenty of other well thought out features you can read about in the "How to use this app" section of the app. If you loved the book, you will love the app even more.
